Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°
- Combine the meatball ingredients. In a large bowl lightly combine the 1 lb ground ham, 1 lb ground beef, 1 cup graham cracker crumbs, 3/4 cup milk, and 1 egg. Make large meatballs. Form the mixture into large meatballs, about 1/3 cup in size each. Place into a 9x13 baking dish. You will have about 12-15 meatballs.
- Whisk together the sauce ingredients & pour over meatballs. In another bowl whisk together the can of condensed tomato soup, 1 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup white vinegar, and 1 tsp dry mustard. Pour the sauce over the meatballs.
- Bake 1 hour. Bake in the oven, uncovered, for 1 hour, basting the tops of the ham balls with the sauce once or twice during cooking.
- Cool & eat! Let the meatballs cool for about 5-10 minutes and then serve with mashed or baked potatoes and veggies.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, add filling ingredients and combine well. Set aside.
- In a large bowl add both flours, baking powder and salt and mix well. In a separate bowl add the remaining dough ingredients and whisk until combined. Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredient using a wooden spoon to form a ball. Cut in half. (You can freeze dough for another time, if desired.)
- Flour a work surface and roll dough about 1/8-inch thick. Use a 3-inch biscuit cutter to cut out 12 rounds from the dough.
- Place a dollop of filling in the center of each dough round. Fold dough over filling to form a half moon. Press edges together with your thumb. Seal the edges using the flat tines of a fork.
- Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a simmer. Add perogies and cook for about 2 minutes. Drain perogies.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet over high heat, melt half of the butter and add the onion.
- Cook onions for 5 to 6 minutes until slightly caramelized. Add perogies and the remaining butter. Allow to saute for a few minutes, then add the scallions.
- Remove to a platter and serve with sour cream.
HAM BALLS
This is my newest, favorite meatball recipe. If you like a sweet twist, you'll like this one. The meatballs will be slightly pink inside when done because of the pork, so do not overbake them!

MAMALIGA
This is the original way to make Mamaliga, the Romanian polenta. When my parents were growing up this was the staple food and bread was not something they were eating everyday. I remember my grandmother making this is a round black bottom cast iron pan that looked more like a hat if turned upside down.On summer vacations I'd eat this at my grandma's house,but nowadays it's more like a treat.It's to accompany some dishes and we rarely make more than we eat .In my childhood I'd eat it with cottage cheese and sour cream, with milk or I'd make a "Bear",which is a mamaliga ball with cheese.Simply, put cheese in the middle and shape it into a ball.For a softer mamaliga, add more water.

Steps:
- Heat the water and add the salt.
- When the water starts to boil, pour the cornmeal all at once and start stirring with a wooden spoon.
- The cornmeal will begin to bubble soon, at which point turn the heat down, but carry on stirring to prevent the formation of lumps.
- Wet the tail end of a wooden spoon with water and insert it into the mamaliga. If it is done, this will come out clean.
